Sure can, that first part was left over from a failed attempt to combine the two moves, should have been clipped. Thanks.

So now, if we are now calling little wings things like a "Purple Cow" based on someone's whim, I'm going ahead by claiming further naming rights.

This particular BUG-Lite will hereafter and into perpetuity be known as the "Blue Blood BUG." Thank you very much. I look forward to the Sudopedia revisions, articles on "Extended Blue Blood BUGS," glory and recognition.

Luke,

I'm glad to see someone having fun with the trend to name interesting patterns. I must admit that I participated, some. I also must admit that this is an interesting pattern, and that it's tempting to stick a label on it. Thanks for the chuckle!!!

I'm stuck. I played the Bug-Lite (I still like to call it a potential DP) but the eliminations didn't set up a move that I could see. I don't understand what Luke did with the Bug-Lite, but his subsequent chain set r6c8<>8, which i thought was accomplished by the Bug-Lite.

Hi, Marty, thanks for looking past my shenanigans and at the actual puzzle

Did you mean to say you do or don't understand what was done with BUG-Lite? r6c8<>8 is accomplished by the BUG-Lite, as you pointed out.

The second chain (xy) proves r7c9<>8.

If what was done with the BUG-Lite is confusing, I will elaborate to the best of my shaky ability.

Luke,

First of all, I'm notation-challenged. But I can now see in your post that the first line like was a heading, or intro, not a separate step. I was thinking that the chain that eliminated 8 from r6c8 was step #2 as opposed to the elimination from the Bug-Lite.
